read/write

Auto-sizing type of text frame. Based on type, reference value is automatically adjusted. For example, for height only type, top-left reference point becomes top-center. Recommended to change auto-sizing type, after setting other auto-sizing attributes

textColumnCount

Number (range 1 - 40)

read/write

The number of columns in the text frame. Note: Depending on the value of use fixed column width, the number of columns can change automatically when the text frame size changes.
